The Wings Challenge

Simon Says Stamps has a new challenge blog that is vintage inspired and that to me means , of course, my favorite products from Tim Holtz! This week was the first one and the theme is "Things with Wings" - any which way you want! And they have a fabulous prize here's a link for more info.

So I dug around in my Tim goodness and made an ATC Chunky (an old 2x4 cut 2.5 x 3.5 - finished on all sides).

Side One - Hears Soar:



Close Up of Heart:

I molded the heart using Mold N Pour and Black UTEE and then put on just a little Copper Dabber and added the Soar definition from an old dictionary (hint - I color copy these so that I can keep the original to reuse again since I only have one old dictionary). The birdcage background is emboss/resist.

Side Two - Time Flies:

The Sides:

Used Sizzix die and sparingly painted with Copper Dabber and then blended over the top with Black Soot Distressed ink - this gives it a old metal finish.

The Top:

Candle cup, copper bead, memo pin and grunge board.

The feet and knob on top:

This is a wooden candle cup - same copper paint treatment as above and then I added some copper wire.

I hope you enjoyed my interpretation of "Things with Wings" and take some time to visit the Simon Says Stamp and Show blog to see everyone's creations!

Happy Creating!

The Stuff:
Everything is Tim Holtz except for the wooden candle cups, wire and copper bead!
